Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

There's gonna be a war. There has to be I think because the situation now has become untenable and there is no line of sight to improvement. the only fix for the current system while keeping it in place is massive government spending, which in the context of how far fucking right the political situation has shifted across both parties, is only possible in the context of massive military mobilization. There's just no other way out that I can see. There can be no second coming of FDR because solidarity and labor power have been completely eroded away.

Problem is, what does war look like between peer powers armed with nukes? Are we going to have an empire destroying exchange, followed up by remaining powers warring over the fallout?

I don't think we will see nukes used except by rogue actors because of MAD tbh. Maybe that's optimistically naive.

Honestly at this point I doubt our shit even works, the Minuteman fleet was built in the 70s, and it wouldn't surprise me if China has the tech to down ICBMs
